IMS 2024 | Impact of the addition of daratumumab to the frontline treatment of patients with AL amyloidosis

Elena Alejo, MD, PhD, University Hospital of Salamanca, Salamanca, Spain, shares insights into a retrospective study analyzing the efficacy of frontline treatment approaches in light chain (AL) amyloidosis. Dr Alejo highlights that the addition of daratumumab to proteasome inhibitors resulted in a 100% partial hematological response or better, with 75% achieving complete hematological response, significantly improving progression-free survival (PFS), even in patients with poor prognosis. This interview took place at the 21st International Myeloma Society (IMS) Annual Meeting, held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
